Hate List by Jennifer Brown (Little Brown, September 2009 - requested at ALA)
Once Was Lost by Sara Zarr (Little Brown, October 2009 - requested at ALA)
Prophecy of the Sisters by Michelle Zink (Little Brown, August 2009)
Solving Zoe by Babara Dee (Margaret K. McElderry, April 2009) (I think this was actually from the week before, but oh well.)
And I bought the following (nothing like a big box from Amazon, eh?):
Extra Credit by Andrew Clements (Atheneum, June 2009) - I was tired of waiting for my library to purchase this one and THEN there was a flooding disaster, so I figured that it'll be awhile before they have the funds for new books... oy... (And I'm hoping that the library I work at will have some money for books soon, but right now, well, we don't.)
The Homeschool Liberation League by Lucy Frank (Dial, July 2009)
Mission Control, This is Apollo by Andrew Chaikin (Viking Juvenile, May 2009)
The Sweet Life of Stella Madison by Lara M. Zeises (Delacorte, July 2009) - Totally sold by Liz's review.
When You Reach Me by Rebecca Stead (Wendy Lamb Books, July 2009) - I've heard so many good things about this one, I just couldn't wait for it! And for some reason Amazon sent me a library bound copy... Hmm. Oh, well!
It was a great week for books in the mail. Go on over to The Story Siren and see what everybody else found in their mailboxes.

Woo! Prophecy of the Sisters! I got this one from the library and it is very interesting so far. Geektastic is on my must read list because of author/artist Bryan Lee O'Malley.
I've only heard great things about Prophecy of the Sisters. Hope you enjoy your books!

I'm looking forward to reading Lost when it comes out. My daughter and I both enjoyed one of Sara Zarr's other books -- Story of a Girl. And I am definitely intrigued by The Homeschool Liberation League.

"Hate List" is amazing. Really. I can't wait until my library's copy gets here so I can put it in the hands of more of my teens.
Happy reading!
